Threshold: Surveying the Domestic Wild is a large-scale sculptural installation on the campus of Marylhurst University in Portland, Oregon by artist Paula Rebsom. It consists of a large-scale viewing blind constructed along the edge of a wildlife corridor that surrounds the campus. In the center of the wall is an open doorway where an existing animal trail, frequented by deer and other wildlife, leads in and out of the forest.
